Show INTERVIEW: Francisco Solaria Page 10 FS: They came back. When the Villistas came in that they took off. VM: Hm11 was the division in the town, numerically? As far as divided on to one---one side or the other? Do you remember approximately? FS: Well, it was kind of hard. People was so scared. They didn't dare to say which side you was because if you did, they just like an old saying about a Chinamen: He used to meet the Carransista he says, 'Que viva,'carranza Then he'd come, and then the Villistas come along, and ask him, quien vive? Villista. So they was killing them. So one Chinaman told the other one when they ask him, who are, who are you for? Say ah----say you---you tell me first. FO: Were there Chinese people in, in your village? FS: No, I never seen a Chinaman. FO: Mmm-hmm. FS: That there, any colored people. FO: Mmm-hmm. FS: But there----although my father relation they while all white people. Even my cousins on my father's side, they had freckles, and we used to call him the Turkey's egg, redhead. And then my mother's side, they've all dark-complexion little sharp. FO: Very interesting. When did your family leave the village? |
